extended stock swingarm axle adjusters?
so i finally and when i say finally i mean FINALLY got my stock extended swingarm from adams 3-9 over after waiting 7 weeks when it was suppose to only take at most 3. but that rant is for another time not now. the thing has no axle adjusters on it its got the holes in the back like any other extended arm but nothing to hold the axle, im going to call them in the morning to see wtf the deal is but has anyone ever delt with making axle adjusters or where i can get some? it looks like it would just be something like the stock adjuster to just slide along the arm but i would need to put a bolt on the end to put tension on it through the end.
any advice would be great
thanks

Try stock parts. It is an extended stock swingarm. If that doesnt work then maybe call them and maybe they forgot to send parts.

heres a couple pics of the arm in the process of painting it now since it is returned as bare metal. awesome extensions machined aluminum, great welds look just like the stock welds. like i said only problem was it took 7 weeks to arrive.
o btw called adams today and they forgot to ship the axle adjusters and the new brake mount grrrrr!!!

Where is the opening for the axel to slide through?

You can't see it in the first pic due to the lighting. In the 2nd pic it's most of the swingarm in the pic. Lighting still isn't the best, but you can see it.
